That’s me as well wdg. Not cell phone, no laptop, no tablet and no Starbucks. Their coffee sucks. I like Waffle House coffee myself, outside of my own.

I thought the definition of PSYCHOPATH was anyone who works at or visits Starbucks. Seriously, ever look at that caliber of live form? It’s like going to the circus… for free.

And I sit here trying to get follow-up post notifications when I comment. One more try here. Ima using Chrome this time instead of safari.
Most gas stations have far better hot, black coffee, so one sipping a “hot coffee” in Starbucks does bring one to question the sanity of a body that would drink the steaming sewage that comes in the green and white cup. The gas stations also have a better selection of corn nuts and candy bars. Plus too, old fashioned style donuts with chocolate icing ARE the best donuts ever. The more you know…
Bob, do you mean convenience stores? Our convenience stores not only have coffee but fresh fruit, salads, sandwich, but also, of course, hot dogs and the like. Convenience, indeed, and you pay for it. But the coffee prices aren’t bad.

I had 5 coffee shops.
Sometimes I would come in and run the gauntlet of power cords running just about which way to any conceivable plug. Some idiots would even bring extension cords.
I would go to the panel and switch off every publicly available outlet and come back upstairs to a shop full of enraged Millenials.
Eventually my shops became ‘uncool’, just old people sitting around talking and sharing the newspapers. They were the best customers ever. Disposable income, chatty, interesting,.. they would come in for 15 minutes and spend $20 instead of the jive turkey mofo’s using my shops as a free wifi park bench for $2 for 3 or 4 hours. Starbucks can have them.
Now I grow coffee instead of roast it. So glad to be away from those idiots.
Gosh, that is awful nice of you TPBer’s.
To tell you the truth, unlike HSF syrup, my coffee currently stinks.
I have mostly old Catimor in production and am currently replanting with Marsellesa and Java.
Maybe in a couple of years it will be worth you time to have coffee sent from Nicaragua.
If you want really good coffee, order a 155lb. sack of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe from RoyalCoffee.com in Oakland. It will set you back $400/500 but worth it in the long run. Keep it cool and dry and you will have the best coffee for 2 years.
Jimmy T., we had a coffee shop exactly like that in my small town. An older guy and his wife ran it (though we have Starbucks as well, which sucks). They had muffins, pastries, etc. I used to take my son up there when he was middle-school aged and beyond. I got coffee, he got hot chocolate, and we each got a pastry or muffin or more (especially with my son). We sat there for hours chatting with the older folks and reading. Sometimes my mother and her best friend would come in and sit with us. Sometimes we met relatives, older acquaintances or church members or neighborhood friends. It was a great place! Unfortunately, the old man died so the wife had to sell. It’s an old-fashioned barber shop now. Miss the coffee house tremendously, but glad something worthwhile moved in.
Please note, we did not sit there for hours without buying. There were no refills, so each drink was charged. And with each additional drink, we usually added another “something” that we wanted to eat. It’s not like that crowd at Starbucks that buys one coffee and sits there for 4 hours.

Starbucks saves all their spent coffee grounds in a separate bin, and you can go in and request them, for your compost.
You don’t have to buy anything. Your compost doesn’t care where it comes from. High in nitrogen.
Go visit your local starbucks today, and be polite to the land whale behind the counter.
Hey…that’s me, but not Starbucks since I hate Starbucks and their fake liberal agenda – better known as Cultural Marxism or cultural suicide.
I only go to Starbucks to take dumps. My work includes lots of driving and there are only 2 places I go to take a #2. Starbucks or a library.

Jimmy T – tell us how to order your coffee. I love buying the coffee beans green and roasting my own.
I’m interested too…
I’m also interested in ordering.

Why not just use you own coffee grounds. I make plenty during the day, and use them on plants.
It seems that all the commenters here have missed the subtext that’s behind the sign.
In Washington, the State can confiscate one’s property based solely on some snowflake’s anxiety.
